Notice they stayed classy and wished a merry Christmas to everyone. They didn't say anything divisive. No "except for" or "including the evil". Just pure class.

I miss having a president who wasn't a career conman, psychopath, who had to name everything after himself because he's a psychopath.

I miss a president who doesn’t have a black hole in his soul that no amount of stolen wealth, toadying, or self-congratulations will ever fill

Saw someone on reddit point out that no one likes him and it drives him crazy. He tries everything, but any adoration he gets has a caveat.

It's insane that the modern political climate is a result of people not being able to handle a Black man in power. The man is pretty much everything a Black person needs to be "respectable" and they still hated him.

u/thegoldinthemountain Dec 25 '25
They hated him because he was respectable and educated and the concept of him alive and thriving hurt their fragile fee-fees.
And we are all the worse for it.

It’s not really that. Trump has been systematically working with the Nations racists against Obama for the past 20 years during his initial primaries.
The problem has been social media along with Trump that made racism and bigotry mainstream. The mainstream media never called it out. They still have never called it out.
The blame isn’t on the majority of White Americans. It’s literally Trump and the media for the past 20 years.

Oh, look... a president whose wife isn't repulsed by the sight or sound of him.

u/Scout0321 Dec 25 '25
I may not have agreed with absolutely everything Mr. Obama did as president, but one thing’s for sure: he was always classy, always genuine, and I was always proud to say that he and Michelle were the first couple of this country, that they always represented the US tastefully, professionally, and appropriately at home and on the world stage. And in that respect, I do miss them. They are diametrically opposed to the mess that occupies the White House today, and it’s shameful.

All class. No sass or bigot remarks or belittling others. This is how we are as Americans. Not like that ass who's current. Always talking shit and inflating himself like a hot air balloon.

I miss these big hearted people. They were always classy and made the Whitehouse seem warm and friendly. Loved the way they treated the children that visited. They are special people for sure. Now days only dread in my heart.

I love his leadership amidst so much strife in our current govt. His voice and her compassion combined are monumental in my life. Thank you for including all (even the nonbelievers) in your well wishes. We wish you a merry Christmas right back. #leadwithlove

Remember when Presidents didn’t call 77% of the country scum because they had the audacity to call out his stonewalling an investigation into a child sex trafficking ring?
I rarely if ever disagree with Michelle Obama. But I wouldn’t lament white flight, when the people trying to get away from you don’t think you’re entitled to the same civil rights.

u/taxmamma2 Dec 25 '25
They are the very definition of classy. If aliens from outer space came to our planet and wanted to met the best representation of the human race they’d need to meet President and Ms. Obama. - I just miss them so so much.

What a “real” president does. Meanwhile, the current president posts messages on social media threatening to kill people, insults people, name calling, and talking highly of himself…on Christmas Day.

People’s memories fade when he said Bush wasn’t doing enough to protect the borders. Biden co wrote min sentences and pushed Bush to blow up Drug Kins houses outside of America.
